Default 2002 Es300 Door Panel Removal

I have a 2002 ES300 and need detailed (possibly illustrated) instructions on how to remove the left rear door panel. Time is of the essence. PLEASE HELP!

Although this is from a Japanese website, the pics pretty much depict the door panel removal process on an '02+ ES.

Can/should I assume this is the same process for the left rear door panel?

So the door is held on by one screw and the rest is clips?

From what it shows in the illustrations I'd have to say yes...

But logically that does not sound right. I myself would imagine more screws, i mean at least 2-3? Anybody with a 02-06 ES taken their door panel off and know?

Default ES 300 door panel removal

There is indeed a 2nd screw located directly behind the door handle. Remove a thin plastic panel at the rear of the handle cavity and there it is.
Thank you Metric motors.
